How can you overcome your personal roadblocks? By Jean Sheehan

A roadblock is an obstacle that you set yourself, believe it or not. Yes, we want to blame someone or something else, but it’s a self-limiting belief that’s all in the mind – the separate mind of limitation forgetting we are conscious co-creators. What we do as we grow older, is, we get more and more conditioned by society to just do what is safe and acceptable. What you see is the people that are successful in life are the ones that take a different direction. There is a reason why everyone who is average does average things. The people who aren’t average do non-average things. There is a reason why only a small percentage of society are successful financially and in other areas of life.

Self-limiting beliefs are obstacles you set yourself. For example, ‘Hey Jean, why are you giving me this advice when you could just do it yourself?’ That is an example of a roadblock. When our heart is open, we see the gift in all things and know there is genuine gifting and sharing.

Let’s stop here as I was one of those people that could not see the gifting from others! I would be given a compliment and would shrug it off or someone would offer to help, and I would be ‘independent’ and push through in martyr ways. Can you relate to this? The roadblock was I couldn’t see when the universe was gently, or sometimes pushing me, to see the silver lining in trauma.

The example here would be my Mum dying on Christmas day when I had just turned 16 years old. Within 12 months, I could see the gift that if she had not died, I would not have been the person I am today. There are always people that want to help – now open your heart to see it. I can assure you there are more genuine people than non-genuine.

If you expect to meet ‘bad’ people, you will. I don’t see bad people and therefore I don’t meet bad people. Maybe they take another street, flight, road or something different from me, as I just don’t attract them in my life.

This wasn’t always the case. I had roadblocks so huge when I was a teenager that they would stop me in my tracks. I can come across the same blocks now, but they are tiny that I do not fall to the illusions of the ‘block’. In reality, they are the same size, but my self-limiting beliefs are not there. It is because I know they are perception, and it is how I see them as a limitation, story, or challenge. So, is it actually a roadblock? This concept can be applied to any area of life. What if life was about experiencing something, reviewing the results for self, and then deciding whether you want a different outcome. This can be a breakthrough!

When a baby first learns to crawl and walk, they don’t limit themselves, they keep trying to get the result they want. As a child when we lose a friend, we easily look for another with grace and ease. When we first learn to drive, the concept of learning so much and being in control of our journey can be daunting. And yet on the first lesson we see ‘proof’ to our self of what we think we cannot do. The more we do it the more we have more proof. You have gone from believing to knowing. You must have believed on some level that you could achieve this experience otherwise you would not have given it a go, let alone made more attempts. This reflects all areas of your life whether business, work, relationships children, retirement and more. When we are in ‘belief’, we can still be in some doubt, but when you give ‘it’ a try, you have proof and result. It is up to you how to see that result as a success or failure.

Once you know what you are doing, or are more conscious and you have results you like/enjoy, you can keep pushing the same buttons for the same systems. If you don’t like the results, try different buttons. The opposite of doubt is faith. The key is to have faith in yourself that you are a conscious co-creator at all times and there is no wrong or right. When we have faith the universe will deliver our order, dreams, and desires so much faster.

There is a saying, ‘I will believe it when I see it’. Dr Wayne Dyer used to say the truth is, ‘I will see it when I believe it’. This is what children do especially at Christmas time. They have a knowing that they will receive their hearts’ desires. It’s once you believe and have faith in yourself, you have an inner knowing that you will attract and achieve your heart’s desires. There is another trick to this …. you need to appreciate what you have.

When I had my first car, it was small and unique and a bomb! I always cared for it as though it was a new modern vehicle of pure luxury. I washed and polished it and kept it sparkling, even though there was a huge dint from the previous owner. What I was creating was the BE, DO, HAVE heart story. My belief was and still is- if I treat something as though it is precious and am grateful with full appreciation, I will attract more of the new. I was called ‘stupid’ and ‘ridiculous’ for this belief system but it seemed to work every time. The winning formula or system for me is to be the person I would be with a new car, do the things I would with a new car and then I would have the new car. It happened. This concept of BE, DO, HAVE has something I have applied and played with most of my adult life, and it continually offers me amazing opportunities such as travel around the world, teaching what I love, meeting wonderful people, and so much more. So BE abundant in your heart and do that which creates that feeling with the knowing it unlocks the roadblocks and you will attract and have your heart’s desires. The clue is not to give up but have faith in yourself.

The more you give the more you get. I love this saying by Winston Churchill, ‘You make a living by what you get, you make a life by what you give’. The giving can be seen with expectations, and we forget to see where it comes from and what it is. Receiving can be a sale you did not expect, a discounted petrol voucher, an old friend repays a debt they owed for many years, you receive a compliment from a total stranger. The key is to give freely to you and be open like a child and be open to what is about to be offered to you. The first gift is of a nurturing thought about yourself and reflect what you have been able to achieve each day. Have appreciation for yourself and gratitude and watch the miracles occur. A miracle is a change of perception and seeing the lesson in all things. So, see the gift in everything – no matter what occurs. The present is living in the now not the past or future as when we are in the now that is all that matters. Potentiality is always within us, but we forget and it is when we reflect on what we have created we can see more possibilities. Remember you are a hologram of pureness and are in different stages of remembering.
